Adeline French Folk Doll - DK Wool

Work Description

Adeline's costume is based on that from Villeneuve-les-Avignon, the Languedoc - Roussillon area in Southern France. The city was founded by Philippe Le Bel, where he built a castle, Fort Saint-Andre. The city is by the Rhone River. Adeline's costume has a dress which comes to the ankle, it is green with white added at the bottom of the dress. The black apron is shorter than most national costumes, but it has bright colours embroidered into it. The collar is larger than normal which almost looks like a shawl. A bonnet is worn.
